Others will do more justice to Keith's actions and motives than I possibly can. But I would like to say how much I like the little details here - Lt Paton producing a couple of pails to sit on (something from Broster's own wartime experience, I don't doubt.) And the poor soldiers being turned out of their sleeping-quarters so the officers can talk in comfort! Hmpf!

The soldiers being turned out of their sleeping-quarters so the officers can talk ALSO seems like something out of Broster's wartime experiences. Peak officer behavior!
